A spinner is numbered from 1 to 10. What is the probability that Stumpy spins the spinner and it lands on an even number, and then Bubba flips a coin and it lands on tails?

there are 5 evens, so
P(even) = 5/10
for the coin, P(tails) = 1/2
so now just multiply them together, since one event does not affect the other.
(Of course, this does assume that Bubba actually flips the coin ...)
thank you
